Large Work Tents for the Big Jobs

For some outdoor workshop jobs, a pop-up shelter is a quick fix, but it could be too small for the kinds of areas you need to cover.

For this kind of job, have a look at our range of large work tents that can cover any space from 6m x 6m up to a huge 9m x 30m.

These shelters might take a little longer to put up, but they are for covering massive spaces. With their high ceilings, you can do almost any job inside them.

Why Do Outdoor Shelters Matter for Construction Projects?

Temporary workshops provide cover for labourers who spend hours outdoors, protecting against rain, wind, sun, and cold.

From construction sites to landscaping jobs, you can store materials and equipment in these tents. Investing in an outdoor shelter will help you to save time and money, helping you to work faster and for longer.

As well as offering protection, construction work tents create a safer space, reducing the health and safety risks of wet surfaces.

When you need focus and stability to be able to do your job outside, a temporary work shelter is a valuable asset.


How Outdoor Shelters Improve Efficiency and Safety

  • Weather Resistance: Waterproof work tents are built to withstand rain, wind, and even snow.

  • Portability: Easy to set up and take down, they help with all work site needs quickly.

  • Worker Protection: They provide shade from the sun or shelter from storms, giving comfort and safety to your team.

Finding the perfect high quality shelter depends on your needs. At Gala Tent, we offer plenty of solutions:

  • Pop-Up Work Tents for Construction Projects: They are a favourite for fast jobs or public spaces when they need to be taken down overnight, thanks to their quick set-up and take-down times.

Types of Labour That Benefit from Work Tents

Work tents can help with a wide range of outdoor manual tasks, ensuring that each project continues as planned despite weather challenges:

  • Construction and Renovation: From private yards to commercial builds, construction work often faces delays due to weather.

    Pop up gazebos let builders, electricians, and painters to continue their tasks in a covered space, reducing issues like damp materials and potential injuries on wet surfaces.


  • Landscaping and Gardening: Whether it’s soil prep or planting, landscaping needs stable conditions for safety and efficiency.

    Temporary labour work tents offer a space to keep equipment and provide shade, allowing landscapers to keep going in their day-to-day tasks.


  • Roofing and Repairs: Roofing requires both skill and safety precautions, and weather can affect the job.

    Outdoor work tents keep roofing materials dry and provide cover for team members during breaks or prep work.


  • Carpentry and Joinery: Woodwork is especially vulnerable to weather, as wet conditions can damage materials and tools.

    Using a work tent prevents materials being exposed to rain water, giving carpenters a reliable workspace to keep going.


  • Agricultural Work: Farming, especially with seasonal crops, requires a flexible, dependable workspace.

    Tents can be set up in fields to protect you as you maintain your equipment, helping farmers to avoid delays and stay on schedule.

Gala tents are robust and reliable. Exactly what is needed especially when trading outdoors with UK weather to withstand. After many years of regular use and despite being battered by 52 mph gusts this year our Gala gazebos remained upright, solid and safe enough to continue trading whilst protecting our fragile stock from damage. After this onslaught, however, we found that some minor tlc was needed to maintain the strength and integrity of both gazebos so 2 spare parts were ordered and after a small initial hiccup they were delivered and fitted last weekend ensuring many more years of use from our old but still solid gazebos. Hats off to the team and director for personal attention and assistance. Top rate product and top rate service. Thank you

I have been putting on outdoor cultural festivals for many years. Having wasted time over the years buying inferior products which are not always easy to construct and don’t last ( buy cheap - buy twice), Gala have for the past ten years become my go to place for all my tent requirements. Sales staff and delivery are second to none. Product ranges to suit all my needs and are of excellent quality and all parts are available to rejuvenate or mend any damaged components. I highly recommend gala. Best value for money.
